Knowledge is king in this game. How should I have known that all my teamwork feats are useless, when I pick Azata Mythic Path? That’s why I play on daring with respec enabled.

2D: Super Mario World. It just plays smooth af. Pretty close to a perfect videogame.
3D: Rayman 2. Platformers usually have a colorful and happy world. Rayman might still be colorful, but it stands out because it’s kinda grim. Gameplay wise… I should replay it, because I’m not actually sure anymore. I think all 3D platformers of this time could be a little bit janky. I remember there were some frustrating parts, at least for a kid.

- Comment on What's your favorite Pokémon Game? 2 weeks ago:
I think Gold was amazing back when I first played. I liked the new Pokemon designs and when I found out you can go to Kanto, my mind was blown. I did not expect so much playtime after the Elite 4. Everything in that game was an improvement to the first gen. It still had some jank, but at that time, I think it was the perfect game they could make.
But there is one thing where I think the GBA games stood out: graphics. I still love it, it’s extremely timeless and just beautiful. That is still how Pokemon games should look like today. I prefer Leaf Green over Emerald because it doesn’t have way too many water routes like Hoenn and as Gold and Silver, it had some nice unexpected post Elite 4 content.
Of course I’m totally biased because those were my childhood games. I tried Soul Silver maaaaany years later and got Shield for the switch, but they could not keep up with the GBA games. Maybe I will give Gen 4 and 5 a go in the future though.
